Dear friends,
I’m truly sorry for being away from the group for so long. I know: no updates so far while AI is running faster than speed of light.

I’m going through a very difficult time in my life and I need some space to heal. This spare-time project (but important for a lot of people here) needs energy and commitment I don’t have right now. I’m sorry, be patient. I’ll be back.

Love u all,
Alessandro.

Hi everybody,
I took a few weeks to take a breath from a lot of stuff, I dedicated all my mental energy to keep working and I dedicated all my spare time to take care of myself. Despite I'm still not ok (BTW, my health was/is always good), I feel it's time to come back and support this wonderful community in this journey. I feel the responsibility of that, time to get in the ring.

I'm very sorry for being out so long, but sometime life hits really hard. I got an incredible support from unknown people from all around the world. It's amazing.

Thanks again, you rock!
Alessandro.
